30 Years of Reptiles - First Boa

[psychocircus]

I believe growth can be continuous for around a decade (and again a very slowed rate). There have also been several cases of underfed animals growing significant amounts several years into their lifespans. If growth is continuous for 15+ years it would be so negligible that it isn't significant. While the stories say continued growth, the tape measures do not.

Note, I used the word believe. IME there isn't much scientific information regarding the topic.
